Student Writings

A couple of weeks ago, in a moment of driver inattention, I ran over a wild duck. My attention soon turned to the ‘purification’ verse we recite before our sutra service.

When you take up one view, you see mountains flowing, and when you take up another view, mountains are not flowing.

Our practice is about seeing life as it is. I have sometimes heard of meditation being described as like removing a set of tinted glasses through which one had a coloured view of the world.
